Postdoc Position: Network Neuroscience of Language at the Donders Centre for Cognition

The ERC project investigates language as an emergent, distributed brain function, integrating white-matter connectivity, functional neuroimaging and individual variability. The overarching aim is to understand how language functions arise from large-scale brain networks and how these networks differ across individuals. The project combines advanced diffusion MRI tractography, functional imaging and multivariate analytical approaches to characterise language networks beyond classical localisationist models.

As a postdoctoral researcher you will join the ERC Consolidator project EMERGENCE, which investigates how language networks arise from multi-scale neurobiological variability. The position focuses on integrating multimodal neuroimaging (structural MRI, diffusion-weighted imaging, functional MRI, and receptor-enriched connectomics) to characterise individual differences in language organisation across healthy populations. You will lead advanced preprocessing and modelling pip...
